1. **[Aligning Language Models to User Opinions](https://md.research.elamur.ai/free/en/papers/hwang-2023-aligning-language-models-user-opinions/)** *(2023 · 93 citations)* The paper asks what information an LLM needs to predict an individual's views: demographic traits, ideology, the person's own earlier answers, or a combination.
2. **[DiscoveryBench: Towards Data-Driven Discovery with Large Language Models](https://md.research.elamur.ai/free/en/papers/majumder-2024-discoverybench-data-driven-discovery/)** *(2024 · 55 citations)* DiscoveryBench tests whether LLM-based agents can independently form and check hypotheses using only supplied datasets, a setting the authors call data-driven discovery.
3. **[CLIN: A Continually Learning Language Agent for Rapid Task Adaptation and Generalization](https://md.research.elamur.ai/free/en/papers/majumder-2023-clin-continually-learning-language-agent/)** *(2023 · 34 citations)* Agents built on LLMs can act in text-based simulated worlds without costly reinforcement learning. Reflection-based methods such as Reflexion can retry a single task better, but their lessons tend to be tied to one setting and do not accumulate. CLIN (continual learning from interactions) addresses this. The model's…
4. **[Data-driven Discovery with Large Generative Models](https://md.research.elamur.ai/free/en/papers/majumder-2024-data-driven-discovery-large-generative/)** *(2024 · 15 citations)* This position paper, written by authors from the Allen Institute for AI and collaborators, urges the ML community to build systems that perform scientific discovery end to end using only datasets already at hand, with no new data collection or lab experiments.
5. **[Evaluating Language Model Pluralism through In-the-wild Crowd Discussions](https://md.research.elamur.ai/free/en/papers/mundada-2026-evaluating-language-model-pluralism-through/)** *(2026)* LLMs tuned with preference alignment often lean toward particular stances on subjective questions. Yet pluralism has mostly been tested with multiple-choice or rating formats, and the few open-ended benchmarks depend on costly crowd annotation for every new domain. The authors propose PluralEval, which builds…
